snow day

Well this morning i was very very excited to get up early as it had been snowing all yesterday and through the night and it was a warm day on the mountain for once -1!!!! my sorta temperature. Anyway up early and dressed, took about 20 minutes to get the car ready as it was like an iced cake with snow frosting all over. Another 20 minutes to shovel the driveway and finally was off!!! Approximately 5 seconds later, the old van decided to refuse to push through the powder and stuck on the road we were. ahhhhh devastation. The friendly neighbour helped to lay sand down but for some strange reason Mr Plough feels no need to plough our driveway after the snow!!!! Dammit. After 10 minutes of more shovelling we were defeated so pulled back into the driveway...not impressed. ahhhhh well, could hitch but probably should start job hunting as that was the plan after boarding today. Atleast its a nice day to walk into town :)
